according to my fellow climber @offwidth it does not exist...the CORE.
I am starting a new challenge tomorrow - train what does not exist- build a Corona-Core! 6/week 1-2 rounds of the following workout until Easter (it is actually only 3min since it is 6x .30on/off. Looks doable!

Zeus, resting on a chair beside me while I worked on Friday (3/20) -- he is enjoying #SocialDistancing, I am free to let him outside and back in as much as he pleases.
He's gorgeous!
We've been ordering takeout almost every night, from our local places.
I hope the small businesses can hold on.

It's going to be especially bad in Maine... we have a huge hospitality industry centered on tourism. Even some extremely popular and successful establishments are looking at bankruptcy already with margins being so low they are one month away from ruin. I have ordered curbside pickup once from a friend's place and will try to do so once a week until this is over but that is only one person.

You simply can't get a Corona core in six weeks. I'm personally offended by the thought. Typical sensationalist advertising. Getting a proper beer belly requires years of hard work and dedication.

they are climbers and the Corona Core was my idea ;) they are far from advertising.
don't be offended - you a beer belly? never! *lol*
 
Well that didn't last long! It seems our Chief Medical Officer has been over-ruled and our most populous states go into lockdown from Tuesday night

Chaos and confusion in Australia as no lockdown turns into three week general lockdown with school closures turns into lockdown of hospitality businesses and religious centres only with schools open in the course of a few hours. The limitations of federalism were on display as our state premiers decided to go it alone only to be brought to heel by our prime minister. When the general lockdown was announced I rushed out and bought $450 worth of alcohol and snacks (our pantry has plenty of food) then last night as the political tensions unfolded I drank an awful lot of the alcohol and ate all the snacks.
 
Speaking of working out, what’s your Quarantine Corner look like?
We have this scary looking guesthouse. Last year we turned it into a scary looking workout place. We call it the Swole Shed. It’s been renamed The Social Distance Shed until further notice.

Looks like a great workout could be had just lifting your medals ?
 
Going for social walks, especially on Sundays, is a quite strongly rooted tradition in Norwegian culture.
Keeping a sensible distance between one another should not be too demanding, though, with a modest population density and plenty of free and accessible nature. Still, I keep seeing people insisting on walking four by four next to each other on paths and pavements, making it difficult for others to avoid them with the advisable margins. Furthermore, some people refuse to wash their hands before and after entering the local grocerie stores, because "they are already clean". People failing to follow the easiest of advices in pandemic times, really stimulates my misanthropy.
 
I also live in an apartment in a decently sized metropolis so no parks, no woods, no nuthin!

I have 4 kettlebells: 26lb, 35lb, 50lb and 70lb
Then I have this awesome cheapo pullup bar and I just do Original Strength crawling, pushups and pullups

If you could purchase only 1 new workout item what would it be? I'm thinking about getting rings. I don't have room for any barbells so those are out. What would you guys get?

Also Netflix and Frozen II are heavily supported in my family.
